    Was it in the final game? Was it buzzer beating? That was before my time. I said the last 25 years.

    Not to win a series. Roy has never hit a series winning buzzer beater.

    Thunder look better without Westbrook. If Thunder win, it will be telling,

    Yes that was for the championship I believe. But doesn't qualify your 25 year span

    Those are all about winning GAMES. The only series winning buzzer beaters I can think of are Stockton, Lillard, and Jordan. There are about 5-7 series winning shots that weren't at the buzzer.

    I'm rooting for the Thunder, mags. The Clippers are garbage.

    I just read through Riverman's link. The only player to make a buzzer-beater to win a series other than Lillard, Jordan and Stockton was Ralph Sampson in 1986.

    They really don't look good at all. I would be surprised if they are a top 5 west team if they play like this throughout the season.

    Dude. It all started because someone mentioned Lillard's shot. I said that I had only seen TWO (it turned out to be 3) SERIES WINNING BUZZER BEATING shots in the last 25 years. That's why Lillard's shot is distinctive. Then you bring up all these other shots which aren't even in the conversation. Lillard is one of three in TWENTY FIVE years. Before that, I know of Sampson's shot to win the finals.

    Exactly as I thought. That's why Lillard's shot is Special. Lots and lots of people have hit big shots in the playoffs. But Lillard is a series winning buzzer beater. That is incredible and will be talked about for decades.
